practical training

"It was an agreeable surprise, Mr. Smith, to see the quality of the parts you use in your practical Outfits. I really do not see how it is that you can give so much for such a small amount of money.

"And this money was repaid to me very early in the Course. The Outfits gave me the practice which put me in the class of experienced Radio men.

"I am convinced of your honorable way of doing business, and of the efficiency of your Course. Thank you, Mr. Smith, for your friendly guidance in my career."

M. T. BORDES, Manhattan Beach, Calif.

The National Radio Institute's practical Outfits are sent you for the serious purpose of making you an expert Radio- Trician, within the shortest possible time.

\Ve could give you a Radio set or an inexpensive testing outfit and make it ap- pear that you were getting a big value. But you are not taking a Radio Course to get a Radio set-you're not taking your Course to get a premium of any sort. You are studying to learn Radio-to become successful by the self -same methods which. for twenty years, have carriedotherN.R.I. men, to good positions.

In these practical Outfits each experiment has a definite purpose. Every one has been tested in the N. R. I. laboratory and carefully planned, not only to give you the best Course of practical work, but to fit in with your theoretical studies in your textbooks. N. R. I. was the first home -study Radio school to adopt the method of giving its students practical experience along with the theory. Develop- ment of this experimental workand buying the necessary material costs N. R. I. well over a hundred thousand dollars a year. You can readily understand that we would not spend such an amount of money for our students' education were it not for the fact that we know these experiments are necessary-vitally important.

This 50-50 method is recognized as the best plan for teaching Radio. By working in this manner you don't have to worry about what will happen when you step into your first Radio job-you'll know from your training and from your experience

exactly what to do- -you will know the "how" and "s% by."

One of the outstanding features of the National Radio Institute's method of training is that these practical Outfits, includ- ing much expensive material, are sent you strictly in accordance with your rate of study. You're not held back in your lessons or in your experimental material until you pay any certain amount of your tuition fee. Neither are you required to wait until you get into your Advanced Course before you start to receive your practical work. We want you to learn the practical end of Radio right at the beginning-along with the regular lessons of your Course- so you can start making money as soon as possible. Everything is arranged to work hand in hand.

In fact, you start your practical work just as soon as you finish a very short, "bird's-eye view" of Radio. The only things which regulate sending your practical experimental Outfits are your lessons and your Report on the previous Outfit.

Here is a schedule showing just when each Outfit is sent you, provided your Re -

Each of your practical Outfits is ac- companied by an Instruction Sheet for per- forming the experiments with that Outfit. There will also be an experiment Report Sheet to be filled out at the conclusion of the experiments on each Outfit and re- turned to the Institute. The Instruction Sheets will also contain itemized lists of the parts and apparatus you should receive so you can check up and make sure everything is there. However, we are continually revising and improving our lessons and instruction material hoe at the Institute. Because of this, additions, alterations and improvements will be made on this equipment without notice.

2AL WAY ER PAY

All necessary equipment for the experiments will be sent you with the exception of batteries. These need not cost you over $5 for the entire practical Course. \Ve considered supplying these batteries but this would have increased the cost of the Course. And as quite a number of students already have batteries which can be used-it would not be fair to make them pay for them again.

Now bear in mind as you progress with your experiments that the very things you are looking for-the things you need in Radio are contained in the Instruction Sheets that go with these Outfits. Com- piling these Instructions frequently caused Chief Dowie and me to work far into the night. But we've made certain to tell you the right things in the right way.

So perform every one of these experiments-no matter what previous experience you have had. You'll cheat yourself if you omit a single experiment.

The N. R. I. 50-50 method of instruction can quickly and thoroughly fit you for a responsible, big -pay position in the great Radio Industry. Hundreds upon hundreds of successful N. R. I. graduates prove this statement beyond a possibility of a doubt.

And now I'll only ask that you do your part. Study conscientiously-carry out all experiments carefully-and always have supreme faith in yourself and in the success to which N. R. I. can guide you.

"I didn't believe it possible to learn as much as I have about Radio in just a few months. I have never been stumped on a job yet.

"Regarding those practical Outfits you supply, let me say that a Course of this kind without the Outfits would be like studying to be a dentist without any teeth to work on. It gives one a confidence that he could get no other way. I can only offer praise-and plenty of.it. Anyone could carry out the experiments with the help of your charts and textbooks.

"Twelve months ago, I was barely getting by. I have made over $300 in spare time while taking your Course and I have great confidence in myself and a good future before me."
